Para(medic)noia

The paramedic calls out my name
Never thought I'd be here at nine years of age
Daggered teeth reeled out my face
Leaving scars I can't ever erase

I fight to breathe
I hear the echoes of hell
How does one touch death and feel sane
No one to blame but myself
I got away with it, I escaped
But the wounds I carry across my face don't ease the pain

What if it's too much?
And I'm never the same?
What if I'm not strong enough
And it follows me to my grave?

I break my fists against the wall
Anger is my medicine
But am I choosing this
Or do I have the power to fight again?

What if it's too much?
And I'm never the same?
What if I'm not strong enough
And it follows me to my grave?

Roll back time, cast it in the sea
Dawn awakes, saltwater breaking
All around, over me

Call the curse for what it is
Break the mold, generational sin
Turn the tide, horizons up ahead
Don't forget what is written
